Step—
The step echoed quietly.
It was just a casual step, but...
Step.
The moment it sounded, it was almost as if all air had been stripped away from the surroundings.
Click! Click! Click! Click!
The sudden rush of keyboard clicks added a sharp edge of panic to the air, the rapid tapping echoing through the room. Startled, several bolted out into the hall, glancing around in confusion and fear as they tried to make sense of what was happening.
"What's happening? Does anyone know...?"
"What should we do?"
Eventually, all eyes fell on the Section Chief of the Comet Guild.
But his gaze was elsewhere.
It was directly fixed on Seth as he sat expressionless, his hand tapping onto the keyboard.
Click! Click! Click!
His teeth clenched tightly at the sight of him.
But as if Seth was oblivious to it, he repeated.
"Take a cubicle before it's too late."
"Wait, Seth!"
"What are you talking about?"
